My Project

This project is for my students! I have a very beat up carpet currently that the students have to sit on during reading time. We use our carpet regularly for reading as a whole group, small group, and independently. This new carpet will be wonderful to sit on for all of our fun reading activities. I will have to throw the old carpet out and we will not have a carpet to sit on for the new school year. Please consider funding our project and giving us a new carpet for learning. Thank you!
